my VIN

Hi, I have 57548-82056 which shows to be a 58 model but this thing was sold to me as a 46 and does have the 4 cyl flathead. It does have cj5 type fenders. I suspect that a cj5 body was put on a cj2a chassis but am not sure. Thanks

 

My serial # is 8505 10443

It is suppose to be a DJ model but all the DJ model I have found are right hand drive and only two wheel drive, mine is left hand drive and has four wheel drive. So do I call it a DJ or a CJ?

my paint code is 226(president's red) and 221 (black) trim

In your case I would post a picture in the technical forum so the folks here can help id what you really have. There were DJ's in both right and left hand drive variants. VIN #'s and tags get swapped on these things over the years in a lot of cases.

 

I have this guy trying to sell me what he says is an M38A1, with a VIN that reads 57548 129676. It does not have the round indention by the passenger fender (not sure what that is), but it does have a split window (not a cut out). Maybe someone can tell me if this is military or civilian jeep?

 

66 cj5?

can anyone tell me or decode my vin # 8305 s 241066? what year it is and anything else about this jeep u can get from the vin#.
(new guy) will have lots of ?'s as i restore my jeep i found in a feild and bought for $50 (which still runs, by the way just needed gas and a water pump)

 

Re: 66 cj5?

Welcome from Minnesota. Sounds like quite a score!

Vin indicates:

CJ5
Model year 1968.
Originally equiped with emmisions control (smog)

That's about all the VIN is going to give you.

Re: 66 cj5?

thanks for the info. ive got it down to the frame and started sanding. on my way.

 

Re: 66 cj5?

Welcome and sounds like you have something there for $50.00. Where are you located and did you get any pic's out in the field or before you took it apart? For pic's you need to join a photo host like photobucket and copy and paste it here.

 

8305 C17 355038
Hello, Can anyone help me with a build month ?
It's titled as a 1969 and from what I have found,
It was Canadian built with the V6 and emissions.
Emissions on a 1969 ??? Does this mean it was destined as a California Jeep ?
Why emissions on a Canadian Jeep ?
83 = Universal CJ-5
05 = Open Body
C = Canadian Built
1 = Left Hand Drive
7 = V6-225 with Emission

 

I'm not sure about some of the numbers, I have a CJ6A with a VIN 8422 10225, and the chart shows that it they did not start until 103..?

 

Pretty sure many of the Jeeps assembled in Canada were built to export to the US. Your Jeep is a 1969 model year vehicle, but build dates for the 1969's is still a bit sketchy. It's a little bit later in the build year so I would probably guess around May 1968, but that's just a guess. Sorry I can't help more.

The vin document is not complete for the CJ6A. Please see your other post for info about your Jeep.

 

Well here goes everybody has been very helpful on all my questions this is going to be the hardest one yet. (I think). i have a what i think a 68 or 69 cj5 i know it is a cj5 but not sure about the year. i also know it came out with a 4 cycilender engine. Here is all the numbers i can find on it 8305015 258150 i need to know so i can get a title for it so i can drive it around. i dont like much to it. Any help will be very helpful. Thanks
